  - A flaw was found in the USB redirector device emulation of QEMU in versions prior to 6.1.0-rc2. It occurs     when dropping packets during a bulk transfer from a SPICE client due to the packet queue being full. A     malicious SPICE client could use this flaw to make QEMU call free() with faked heap chunk metadata,     resulting in a crash of QEMU or potential code execution with the privileges of the QEMU process on the     host. (CVE-2021-3682)

  - An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in the UAS (USB Attached SCSI) device emulation of QEMU in versions     prior to 6.2.0-rc0. The device uses the guest supplied stream number unchecked, which can lead to out-of-     bounds access to the UASDevice->data3 and UASDevice->status3 fields. A malicious guest user could use this     flaw to crash QEMU or potentially achieve code execution with the privileges of the QEMU process on the     host. (CVE-2021-3713)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the virtio-net device of QEMU. It could occur when the     descriptor's address belongs to the non direct access region, due to num_buffers being set after the     virtqueue elem has been unmapped. A malicious guest could use this flaw to crash QEMU, resulting in a     denial of service condition, or potentially execute code on the host with the privileges of the QEMU     process. (CVE-2021-3748)

  - An off-by-one error was found in the SCSI device emulation in QEMU. It could occur while processing MODE     SELECT commands in mode_sense_page() if the 'page' argument was set to MODE_PAGE_ALLS (0x3f). A malicious     guest could use this flaw to potentially crash QEMU, resulting in a denial of service condition.
    (CVE-2021-3930)

  - A flaw was found in the QXL display device emulation in QEMU. An integer overflow in the cursor_alloc()     function can lead to the allocation of a small cursor object followed by a subsequent heap-based buffer     overflow. This flaw allows a malicious privileged guest user to crash the QEMU process on the host or     potentially execute arbitrary code within the context of the QEMU process. (CVE-2021-4206)

  - A flaw was found in the QXL display device emulation in QEMU. A double fetch of guest controlled values     `cursor->header.width` and `cursor->header.height` can lead to the allocation of a small cursor object     followed by a subsequent heap-based buffer overflow. A malicious privileged guest user could use this flaw     to crash the QEMU process on the host or potentially execute arbitrary code within the context of the QEMU     process. (CVE-2021-4207)

  - A flaw was found in the vhost-vsock device of QEMU. In case of error, an invalid element was not detached     from the virtqueue before freeing its memory, leading to memory leakage and other unexpected results.
    Affected QEMU versions <= 6.2.0. (CVE-2022-26354)

  - softmmu/physmem.c in QEMU through 7.0.0 can perform an uninitialized read on the translate_fail path,     leading to an io_readx or io_writex crash. (CVE-2022-35414)
